Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(It's only a dream)
(It's only a dream)
[Verse 2]
Outside the rain
And the heart skips a beat
Are you lonely?
Creature of the night
It's been almost a week
Could you love me only?
[Verse 3]
Look at me for a very long time
But long enough to know
Love is a word I've been trying to find
Words don't matter
They don't matter at all
[Verse 4]
So you're still lonely
You say that it's been forever
Maybe you never knew me
Maybe you thought that I'd never change
But you know I'm changing
You're wrong
[Verse 5]
And it's been like dying
Ooh, no love's that hard to find
And I'm tired of...
And I'm tired of trying
And I'm tired of trying
[Verse 6]
(It's only a dream)
Maybe it's only a dream
(It's only a dream)
I don't want to feel that
(It's only a dream)
When it's one more link in the chain
I know (It's only a dream)
I don't believe that
(It's only a dream)
(It's only a dream)
[Verse 7]
Outside the rain
And the heart skips a beat
So you're lonely
Creature of the night
It's been almost a week
Could you love me only?
[Verse 8]
Look in my eyes
Touch my face
Baby, there's no one
That can take my place
[Verse 9]
Look in my eyes
Touch my face
Baby, there's no one that
Can ever replace that heartache
Take away that heartache
[Verse 10]
Love is a word that some entertain
If you find it
You have won the game
[Verse 11]
Somebody said
"Outside the rain..."
